You say that you don't want to do MDS but you can still go for a PG degree. If
you don't want to MDS then you can opt for courses like:
Dental Hygienist Certificate Course
Dental Mechanic Certificate Course
Diploma Course In Dental Assistance
Some of the other options are
Civil Services
Medical Transcription
Defense Services
KPO
Hospital Management
A wide range of career opportunities exist in the filed of dentistry.
Dental departments in hospitals, dental clinics and nursing homes need
the services of dentists. Apart from this the Forensic Departments also
need good dentists who are involved in identification of deceased
persons through dental remains, bite mark analysis and examination of
oral facial structures for determination of injury, possible malpractice
or insurance fraud. Pharmaceuticals and other companies, which produce
dental and oral care products, require dentists for research and
advisory works. One can also take up work as a Dental Hygienist, Dental
assistant or as a Dental consultant to models and film artists.
Self-employment is also a lucrative avenue and one can become a private
practitioner. For those with an adventurous kind of personality one can
also join the Army Dental Corps. The Armed forces also recruit dentists
directly. Recruitment to a government job is through UPSC and Staff
Selection Commission for states.
